Shuttle Barebone XS35 with Intel Atom D510 and Nvidia Ion 2
Previously we mentioned about Shuttle XS29 and XS29F that are based on VIA’s Nano based solution, now the famous PC manufacturer has upgraded to much more powerful system based on Intel latest Atom D510 processor. Named as XS35, the tiny nettop machine will be designed with Nvidia Ion 2 integrated graphics solution targeted for much graphics intensive multimedia applications.
The Intel Atom D510 is a dual-core SKU running at 1.66GHz and when combined with NM10 controller chipset, it offers various interfaces that are able to extend its connectivity with Ethernet, USB 2.0 ports, legacy IOs, audio ports, video ports such as VGA, HDMI and even DisplayPort. In order to enhance its graphics processing as compared to predecessor Atom-based nettops, a newly designed Ion 2 GPU has been optimized to work on all series of ‘Pineview’ processors that can be targeted to deliver an impressive 1080p HD (High Definition) media decode and playback with DirectX 10 compatibility. Other hardware specifications include a 2.5-inch hard disk drive, an optical drive as well as a multi-format card slot for expansion storage. All these are well packed into a sleek casing with VESA mounting interface that can be attached to the back of any display panels suitable for space constraint environments.
No pricing information yet, the Shuttle Barebone XS35 will be commercialized by second quarter of this year as one of the most powerful but yet fan-less nettop machines in consumer market.

The Real Reason Steve Jobs Pulled Apple From Macworld
Last year Apple stunned, excuse the pun, the Mac world and announced it would no longer attend Macworld Expo or any other trade show event effective after Macworld 2009. Many reasons circulated why Apple would make such an incredible decision with most boiling down to expense. Apple didn’t need trade shows, trade shows needed Apple was the governing thought. While that may be true — Macworld 2010 attendance and vendor participation will reveal that answer — there really is more to the reason for Apple’s ignoring the industry standards of dog and pony shows. Three words: Steve Jobs ego.
It’s no new news to make reference to the iCEOs audacity as folklore is strong when concerning Jobs character. Apple does like to put spin on things no matter what the announcement and when it told the world that it was removing itself from the trade show circuit due to cost and the desire not to be forced for product release dates, it sounded “about right” on the surface. However, one has to scratch their head and wonder why not even a year after that announcement, Apple declared to the world, in a building on the same block Macworld is held, the iPad. Okay, so it must have been the cost thingy, right? Well, maybe, but for a company with tens of billions — ya, billions — of dollars in cash, this argument doesn’t seem that valid, either.
Digging deeper into the iPad launch, one finds many interesting facts. First, the gathering was by invite only. A typical Apple strategy. Second, only well known organizations received these invites. Third, the hands-on demonstration was limited, for example CNET was only allowed to have three of its members take a look at the device to prevent “inner cross-over”. Lastly, the public was visibly forced out and prevented from entry. In the end, Steve Jobs ran the show from start to finish down to who was allowed to sit in the halls of his majesty. Plain and simple, Steve is a control freak and he couldn’t command what IDG did with Macworld Expo. So, he pulled Apple out of it.
There are many examples of Steve’s ego getting in the way of catching a bit closer to Apple-related “stuff” such as when he pulled the less than flattering biography iCon from Apple Stores world wide. The stories are extensive how Apple would fail during Jobs’ day-to-day absence during his liver ordeal of 2008/2009. Since Jobs micro-managed everything, down to what color ties his lieutenants could wear (just kidding on the last one…I think) no one thought Apple had a chance without Jobs running the ship. Really, it does not take much to run the case for Apple leaving Macworld because Jobs doesn’t like how he can’t run the show.
I’m on record for loving Apple and its products and I admit many of the reasons I came back to Apple in 2001 was because of the many great things Jobs brought to Apple. Yet, I am also very vocal about what a pompous jerk Steve Jobs is, as well. From suing blogs due to printing leaked information and talking about how they are “breaking the law”, and yet he forgets about all those free long distance calls he made in the 70s using Woz’s Blue Box as well as “ripping off” Xerox PARCs mouse and GUI for the original Mac, to naming his company similar to the then worlds most popular record label and then telling companies with iPod-like names today to “change your name, it’s simple enough;” it’s tough to accept Jobs as the genius the world wants to paint him.
As long as Jobs has a strong product on stage with him, he’ll continue to ride his high horse with little worry of being jousted off of it. Yes, Jobs can give the pseudo finger to IDG and then show the world the iPad weeks before the revised Apple-less Macworld Expo but remember this, Steve, not all empires last for ever. Rome fell and so well you. How you want to be remembered in history depends how you treat those in the present.
